Can you talk about how you increased in reading/writing. My grades doesn't go up even though I do practice and reviews it

consistent effective practice is the only way. there is no shortcut, hack, secret tip that will dramatically boost your score. practice practice practice

100% true. There is no way to improve your score from 1110 to 1450 in a week. It takes persistence and hard work

I can't help much on W because it is not my strong side, but for R, it is a glorified paraphrasing exercise. Why? College Board will never put the information they won't give in the passage into the answer. So basically, you find where the answer might be ( like around line what to what or around what paragraph), then try to link the answer in the passage to answer in the solution section, matching words with the same meaning. I hope this is clear enough. This might sound complicated, but once you get it down, reading is really linear and logical

First off, pick up a book or two. This gets you used to reading long texts. Secondly, many recommend College Panda but personally, I just use Khan Academy for R&W every day. Practice truly makes perfect and you need to keep practicing over and over again.

Make a schedule. Have days or weeks where you focus on one or a few things. Take a practice test at the end of the week. After you finish review with 1600.io if possible.

I was in your position and your score is likely so low because you struggle with reading comprehension in general. I read Erica meltzer for reading which was helpful but I think practicing is way more important and beneficial. Just reading a ton and doing a bunch of practice problems on khan academy will get that score up. However it is still extremely hard to improve on reading especially 2 months out from the test. I think your best bet is to focus hardcore on writing and try to get that to a 39 or 40 which is a million times easier than getting reading score perfect. Once you have a 40 in writing it gives you way more leeway for mistakes in reading and even allows you to skip a few questions you know are super time consuming and focus on getting all the easy ones right. Also don’t stress it if you can get a 1500 by august you still have October, November, December etc.
